Could you build this?
No ScreenRec is a multi-platform native desktop application requiring native video capture drivers, low-latency OS-level encoders, and custom desktop audio loopback capture.
What it would actually take: Requires native C++/C# or Rust desktop development with direct hooks into Windows Desktop Duplication API, macOS ScreenCaptureKit, and Linux PipeWire/X11. It must manage hardware-accelerated video encoding (NVENC, Intel QuickSync, Apple VideoToolbox) and OS virtual audio drivers to cleanly capture system sound and microphone simultaneously without desync, packaged across three separate native installer architectures.
